Summary:                    Audigy2 Platinum: very low volume (both in and out)
Description: 
Both the input and output levels of my Audigy2 Platinum seem to be very low
if compared to the same card with Windows (win98se). For example, I
connected an external source (a MD player with very loud music in the
disc) to the optical input, then to the aux input, then to the aux2 input.
With the mixer settings to 100% the input level still does not go over
20-25% of the maximum amplitude (while with Windows I have to lower the
input level or it will be too high). The same thing applies to the output
level of my analog speakers. [I must be *very* careful when I reboot with
Windows and must not forget to turn the volume knob from 10 to 2]. I had
exactly the same problem when I used the emu10k1 drivers from sourceforge.

pzad: is this issue ever going to be addressed (we're approaching the
two-year mark), or should I just give up on using Linux for audio
recording with my Audigy?

Known problem. The problem is due to the way sound is routed. This has been
fixed for one creative sound card so far. I will upload a patch to try
when I get a moment.
